Filter by:This study is an effectiveness trial investigating neurofeedback (NFB) in adults with PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder). Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment conditions - i) NFB, or ii) wait list. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, our study will, primarily, take place online (i.e., online assessment and treatment, with option of in-person fMRI, or functional magnetic resonance imaging, scans). NFB sessions will be conducted from home, with videoconferenced supervision by research staff. After study completion, individuals in the wait list condition will be offered the same NFB treatment.
This study will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy of nabiximols for the treatment of symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in participants receiving selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) or serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) pharmacotherapy.
This is a single-arm, open-label feasibility study. A maximum of 15 participants will be enrolled. All participants will undergo a novel neurofeedback intervention, targeting down-regulation of deep limbic structures, specifically the amygdalae. Participants will complete 12 neurofeedback sessions delivered twice weekly over 6 consecutive weeks. The intervention will be delivered via the PRISM platform.
Pregnenolone is a neurosteroid and an over-the-counter supplement that has shown promise in clinical studies of stress-related disorders, such as anxiety, depression and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Epidemiological studies suggest that patients with PTSD are at higher risk of developing addiction, including alcohol use disorder (AUD).The following hypothesis will be tested in this trial: pregnenolone is associated with a reduction in both PTSD symptoms and the number of standard drinks per week in outpatients with PTSD and AUD.
This study will evaluate the effect of a manualized treatment (Goal Management Training, or GMT) on the cognitive impairments associated with PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder), as well as any impact on PTSD symptems themselves. Participants will be randomized to either GMT group treatment, or a wait list condition.
This study aims to test whether aerobic exercise improves the consolidation and subsequent recall of the learned safety memories among adult women with PTSD related to interpersonal violence exposure and whether this effect is mediated by the ability of exercise to increase acute levels of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) and endocannabinoids (eCB). Participants can expect to be on study for up to 90 days, participating in 4 study sessions: Day 1 of Intake Screening, Day 2 of Emotional Learning, Day 3 of Fear Extinction and Exercise, and Day 4 of Recall of Emotional Learning.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of a brain stimulation technique known as transcranial direct current stimulation, or tDCS, on the benefits of Prolonged Exposure therapy, or PE, which is an effective treatment for posttraumatic stress disorder, or PTSD. tDCS has been demonstrated to be safe and effective for influencing brain activity by passing a weak electrical current through the scalp. In this study, tDCS is provided in addition to PE treatment, through the National Crime Victim's Research and Treatment Center at MUSC, or the PTSD Clinical Team Clinic within the Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center.
This prospective, observational, multicentre study evaluates the existence of Post-traumatic stress disorder following a stroke at 3 and 6 months after the management of the patient. Questionnaires will be used to assess the presence of stroke post traumatic disorder. The evaluation of stroke post traumatic disorder would allow to underline the importance of the awareness of the care teams in the the screening of these disorders and to evaluate if the Post-traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist Scale (PCL5) is an effective screening tool.
The purpose of this study is to develop an innovative, safe, acceptable, feasible, and efficacious integrated CLASP-PE intervention and to Collect pilot data to evaluate the preliminary evidence of the promise of the intervention. We hypothesize that the CLASP-PE intervention will demonstrate safety, acceptability, feasibility, and efficacy in the open trial.
The study is exploring the ease and ability to integrate a mobile application in outpatient behavioral health treatment. There are two major aims to the study: 1) Determine feasibility and acceptability of integrating a mobile app into behavioral health treatment for adolescents with co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders, and 2) identify initial signal of effect on engagement and/or treatment outcomes among youth who use the mobile app.
